Deputy Murphy said it should pull back troops and deployment in eastern Europe. I refer the Deputy to an article written in the Financial Timesby the Prime Minister of Estonia. If the Deputy reads that article he will understand why if he lived in Estonia, Poland, Latvia or Lithuania he would never want to be alone again. That is the phrase the Prime Minister used. Her grandparents were deported to Siberia. First they had the Nazis and then they had the Russians. When the Russians came in after World War II they were deported to Siberia. She said they will never be alone again because being alone again means the kind of thing that is happening in Ukraine right now.
